What goes on
Behind closed doors
Private wounds
Open sores
You're your own
Worst enemy
Cheap thrills bring you to your knees
It's thumbs down for someone you know
Well it's easy come and easy go
Burn your bridges, take what you can get
Go for the throat 'cause you paid your debt
Livin' well is the best revenge
So give 'em hell
(While the city sleeps)
Yeah... It's all there in black and white
(While the city sleeps)
Yeah... through the eye of the needle, gotta thread your life
(While the city sleeps)
While the city sleeps... yeah
A hit or miss
An eye for an eye
Live for today
And don't ask why
For better or worse
You're bought and sold
They love you while you're hot
And leave you when you're cold
So burn your bridges, take what you can get
Go for the throat 'cause you paid your debt
Livin' well is the best revenge
So give 'em hell
(While the city sleeps)
Yeah... better run for your life, take your troubles to the night
(While the city sleeps)
Yeah... beggars, thieves and losers, there's no relief
(While the city sleeps)
There's no relief, while the city sleeps
(While the city sleeps)
Yeah
Burn your bridges, take what you can get
Go for the throat 'cause you paid your debt
Livin' well is the best revenge
So give 'em hell
(While the city sleeps)
While the city sleeps
(While the city sleeps)
While the city sleeps
(While the city sleeps)
Yeah... there's no relief
(While the city sleeps)
